Electroluminescence in Organic Light-Emitting Diodes: Basics, Processes, and Optimizations

Organic electronic and photonic devices have attracted great attention in recent years due to their unique properties. From electronic point of view, organic materials show capability similar to their inorganic counterpart of transporting charges, producing light and even magnetism. Mechanically, organic is a soft material which can be processed at low temperature. This book focuses on the photonic side of the technology; the organic light-emitting diode (OLED). The book starts with introduction of OLED history, physics of organic semiconductor and the various types of materials, fabrication and characterizations of OLED. Various optimization techniques to improve the performance of the OLED using multilayer structure were discussed in depth. This book is intended for diversity readers such as graduate and postgraduate student in science and engineering and newcomers to the field. It provides numerous relevant up-to-date references for those working in OLED.
